Description
This is the Annual Maintenance Renewal for SolarWinds Patch Manager. This product extends Microsoft WSUS and SCCM to handle 3rd-party applications. (Note: Sometimes referred to as DameWare Patch Manager in legacy bundles, this renewal covers the standard SolarWinds Patch Manager license).
Renewing maintenance is critical because it keeps your 3rd-Party Update Catalog active. Without this, you lose the ability to automatically patch Adobe, Java, Chrome, and other non-Microsoft apps, leaving your network vulnerable.
Security Feedback
"Patch Manager saves us about 20 hours a week. We don't have to manually package Adobe updates anymore; it just flows through our existing SCCM infrastructure."
— SysAdmin (TrustRadius Review)

FAQs: Patch Manager Renewal
Q: Does this work with Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (MECM)?
A: Yes, SolarWinds Patch Manager integrates natively with MECM (formerly SCCM) console.
Q: What happens if maintenance expires?
A: Your "3rd Party Update Catalog" will stop syncing. You will no longer receive new patches for Adobe, Chrome, etc., which is a major security risk.
Q: Is this different from DameWare?
A: Yes. DameWare is for remote control. Patch Manager is for deploying software updates. They are often used together but licensed separately.
